PCT designated stageWO2026103328A1Electric discharge tubesHigh energyCurrent voltage
Disclosed in the present application are a semiconductor processing device, an ignition-of-plasma control method and a related apparatus. In the semiconductor processing device, during ignition of plasma, a processing gas is first supplied to a processing chamber, and a direct-current voltage is applied to a target electrode, so as to form a target electric field; and the target electric field is used to accelerate charged particles, such that the free charged particles in the processing chamber obtain energy and then bombard the processing gas to form a first plasma, thereby completing a pre-ignition-of-plasma process. In an initial phase of plasma discharge, electrons having relatively high energy are mainly required. Therefore, by means of using the target electric field, which is formed by the direct-current voltage, to accelerate the charged particles, the charged particles can obtain relatively high energy, thereby facilitating an improvement in the success rate of ignition of plasma. In addition, other hardware structures, such as a matcher, are not required when the direct-current voltage is applied to the electrode, thereby having the characteristics of simplicity and ease of implementation. Once pre-ignition-of-plasma is completed, the application of the direct-current voltage to the target electrode can be stopped, and radio frequency power is supplied to the processing chamber, thereby completing a full ignition-of-plasma and processing process.
